Winkworth, Reading

Winkworth have just sold my apartment in Reading. In spite of going to market in early January they found me a buyer within days. When the buyer quickly dropped out, they found me another one only days later. Having found the eventual buyer, they followed up meticulously through to exchange of contract and their attention to detail, attitude and professionalism was second to none. They gave me the impression that if they had been selling their own place they could not have done more. I cannot recommend James, Michael and their experienced team more highly. Frank Macaluso

The Best Estate Agent in Reading. We sold our newly refurbished property through Winkworth. Agents Robin and Michael are the best in town. Got valuable advice from them on how to get a great finish to the property. They gave the best marketing that the property needed, it was advertised on a full page in the local property paper. Couple of open houses were done and the house was sold with in 2 weeks. It was a tough market , yet the team have done extremely well to follow up the sales to completion. Highly Recommended.

The experience of selling my house with Winkworth Reading couldn't be more satisfactory. We got an outstanding service from beginning to completion. They did a very professional advertisement and marketing strategy on the property and they sold it above asking price the same day it went on the market. Michael, one of the branch directors, was always there to keep us informed on the process. He negotiated chain timelines in a way that all parties were happy, so everything went simple and smooth.

I approached Winkworth to sell my property after being let down by a rival. It was the best choice I could have made and wished I had chosen them first time round. They have been realistic and came up with numerous strategies to sell my house, which received an offer after 3 weeks. Everyone has been helpful and they kept me updated throughout the process which is half the battle. In an industry where a personal touch can be lacking from certain companies, Winkworth excelled in making me feel valued. The team are a credit to the company, Michael and Robin especially.

Cannot recommend Winkworth Reading enough for being professional, understanding and patient during the sale process. A special thanks to Michael Foldvari for his support. Munirah Williams

First class service. Let down by another big local agent who could not sell in 6 months. Winkworth sold my house in one week. 2 viewings, 2 offers and then professionally handled afterwards right through to exchange of contracts. Robin handled the whole process and kept us informed throughout. Would recommend 100%. Scott Yates

Excellent service. Thorough, sincere, responsive and extremely dependable team. Indeed, having interacted with other letting agents, our experience with Winkworth came across as a pleasant surprise. For one, the senior management take customer service seriously - and so you have them out and about, actually showing properties to customers, instead of being inaccessible (which is the case in most places). The entire interaction was very proactive - we were often recommended properties that would suit us - what this means is Winkworth actively participated in our property search, instead of us calling in each time. They were accessible even on a long weekend, giving us updates. Overall a fantastic team!

We've worked with Michael Foldvari over several years buying and selling various properties. Most recently he did another terrific job; particularly impressive was his tenacity and patience during the period between acceptance of offer and completion, in the face of the buyer's dreadful conveyancing firm. No hesitation in recommending him. Alan Wick

The experience with Winkworth is just exceptional, I recently completed on my property and was really impressed by their customer service. They are very responsive and ensure that all updates are provided on timely basis. During my process I was well aware of the progress hence helping me in concentrating on all other things. They will go out of the way and help in other aspects as well to ensure that the whole transition to the new home is smooth. I can't thank them enough for the effort the have put in for me, I would 100% recommend them to anyone, lastly after providing an exceptional service they like to pamper their clients with lovely giveaways. Thanks again - you guys were amazing. Sumbul Khatri

All of the staff members are knowledgeable and very helpful. They let out my property and I feel it's in safe hands with them. Lisa de-la Plain

As Landlords we have used a lot of estate agents over the years to Let our properties and have always hit problems - usually because teams and departments don't communicate with each other! But our experience with Winkworth has been completely different - from marketing the property, finding suitable tenants, referencing, paperwork and the finances, we have had a seamless service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the team there and will definitely be back in touch when the property is vacant again. Paul and Laura Dunk

I've Let my property through Winkworth for over 2 years now and had no real issues. They have been quick to respond to any requests and kept me informed with any changes in circumstances. I would recommend them to anyone considering renting our their property. Damion Forsberg

As a landlord we have worked with several other big agencies in Reading and frequently had problems. This team are by far the best. They always handle everything very professionally and fairly for landlords and tenants alike. Penny Clarke

I have worked with James Hathaway for over 14 years and I am so pleased to be working with James now at Winkworth Reading. James is the sole reason we are placing all of our rental properties with Winkworth. James is honest, diligent, goes the extra mile to make sure things are in order without troubling us with minor details, he knows what is required and gets to work to resolve and implement things. James always returns calls and emails, he tells you what you need to do or know rather than what you want to hear, which is important if you are a serious and caring landlord trying to provide quality rental properties. Its rare to find this no-nonsense straight talking approach these days, I value James' advice as he and his business partners along with hand picked colleagues at Winkworth have the professional experience to see things through. They have my complete trust, I couldn't recommend them highly enough.Thank you to James and everyone at Winkworth Reading who make it all happen so smoothly and make my life easier. David Worthy

Winkworth in Reading providing very professional services to their customers without a second thought. As a landlord, the property inspection reports and the rental payments are on time without an issue. I contacted James Hathaway for getting all the details as first time landlord and everything was well explained and the whole team providing excellent services, what was explained. I would definitely recommend Winkworth to my friends, of course it was recommended to me by somebody. Shivanand P

I have been using Winkworth to Managed one of my apartments for some time and the whole experience has been excellent. I have now passed them my second apartment to Manage as they were incredibly quick but also very professional at Marketing and letting it. Really impressive. There have been a couple of issues with the new Tenants that needed careful handling as well some sound advice which has been very welcome. Therefore I'd like to thank everyone at Winkworth that I have dealt with recently and in particular Hannah Warwick for her calmness and patience. She has been a pleasure to do business with and I have complete confidence in her ability to manage my properties. Stephen Bargent

I have been nothing but impressed with the service I have received from Winkworth. They have dealt with my property with a quiet professionalism, never bothering me with the trivial matters that they could handle themselves. They have removed a lot of the hassle of letting out my property. Merlin XL

I have been a Landlord for the past 18 years and have used many Estate Agents , but never had received such professional and excellent services Winkworth Reading has offered me. I was particularly impressed with James Old whose professional and friendly manner, his honest and sound advice , his enthusiasm and frequent feedback is just second to none. A BIG THANK YOU to Winkworth and James for going out of his way to find the right tenant so quickly and so hassle free. I would highly recommend Winkworth Reading. Try them out and find out for yourself. Parviz Oskoui
